The high-performance variant of Mercedes’s entry-luxury C-class sedan returns as the 2024 C63, but this time it will get a radically different engine. The previous generation was powered by a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8 with either 469 or 503 horsepower, but this new-generation C63 is motivated by a gasoline engine half that size: a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that combines with an electric motor to make a whopping 671 horsepower in total. The new plug-in hybrid setup promises to improve upon the previous C63’s great performance, though the engine’s character has no doubt changed radically. To help mitigate turbo lag, the downsized engine uses an electrically powered turbocharger system related to the one found in Mercedes-AMG’s Formula 1 race car. Running in full-electric mode, a fully-charged battery should provide about 6 miles of driving range. The rest of the package is heavily based on the new C-class that debuted for the 2022 model year but with racier styling and a spruced-up interior. Mercedes-AMG has also confirmed that the junior C43 model will also return to the lineup, but we review that model separately.
